Tweaked Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Unless someone can provide a translation of the awning this place is simply known as Fried Dumplings. My brother gives a short review.
weinoo Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 These places are all over Chinatown. Everyone has their favorite. Mine is Prosperity Dumplings on Eldridge Street.
goodeats Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 "Old Shandong Pot Sticker/Fried Dumpling" (subsidiary/second location in the smaller characters). The smallest characters on the left say "home style flavors" & on the rt say "handmade." *Very common to use "old" as part of business, calling someone by that, etc.
Steve R. Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Unless someone can provide a translation of the awning this place is simply known as Fried Dumplings. My brother gives a short review. It hasnt stopped me from eating dumplings there, but I find this place has significantly thicker dough, making them much heavier than some of the other places.
DonRocks Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 [Given the tenure of the follow-up posts, and the fact that I cannot read Mandarin (or even tell if it IS Mandarin), I'm going to leave this as a general "Fried Dumplings" thread. If anyone can figure out the name of Tweaked's restaurant, I'll be happy to split it off into its own thread, but these things can be done later as well.]
weinoo Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 What timing! Yesterday's NY Times has an article on the dumpling craze - they're no longer confined to Chinatown, and they're spreading like wildfire: New York has been a dumpling town for a long time. Up and down the streets of Flushing (and at countless stuffed-pouch shrines like Vanessa’s Dumpling House, Joe’s Shanghai, Nom Wah Tea Parlor, Grand Sichuan, Prosperity Dumpling and M Shanghai Bistro & Garden), diners can feast on platters of two-bite delights while sometimes spending less than you’d pay for a morning cup of coffee.

Pool Boy Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Did a Queens food tour (took the #7 line out and worked way back to Manhattan) I think two years ago. Hit up a place in Queens called Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao. They make a lot of food, but we went for the soup dumplings. What a treat! 1

Well, yes, characters are not distinguished by dialect, but no, it's not the "same," per se, as there is a difference between Traditional and Simplified characters. (But I'm sure you knew that; just being my "certified geek" self.) 1
